I have a client that is getting the error in the subject.

I had the user do a ssh -v while logged in to get he version number:

dhatoffice@05 ~ : ssh -v
OpenSSH_4.5p1 FreeBSD-20061110, OpenSSL 0.9.7e-p1 25 Oct 2004

They are using this hosting service:
http://highspeedrails.com/

The user reports he can connect via putty.exe without issue, but when using my app that uses SB, he gets:
The negotiation of host key verification algorithm is failed

In order to solve the problem try to set the TScSSHClient.HostKeyAlgorithms.AsString property to 'ssh-rsa,ssh-dss'.

I am pretty sure it's already set to that, but will double check.

I was wrong, it was set to rsa only.

How do I set it to both in code at runtime?

Thanks,

This seemed to work:

dsa:= TScSSHHostKeyAlgorithmItem(fclient.HostKeyAlgorithms.Add);
dsa.Algorithm:=aadsa;

Don't know if that is best practice or not though.

It is right. But the simpler way is the following code:

Code: Select all

Client.HostKeyAlgorithms.AsString := 'ssh-rsa,ssh-dss';

Yes, that is much nicer. Thanks for the tip
I recompiled it so hopefully that takes care of the issue my client was seeing.

Thanks again,
